WAUKESHA – The University of Wisconsin-Waukesha recognized students who received departmental honors and achievement awards at its spring Honors & Degree ceremony May 22.

Department honors are awarded to any UW-Waukesha student nominated by faculty for truly outstanding work in their discipline. Honors are only bestowed when an individual department so designates. The following students were honored: Carissa Rohde (Oconomowoc, biology), Zachary Viegut (Oconomowoc, biology), Jacob Rankin (Waukesha, philosophy), Kimberly Wendorf (Waukesha, philosophy) and Lucas Kasal (Milwaukee, political science).

UW–Waukesha has the largest enrollment among the 13 UW Colleges campuses. These freshman/sophomore campuses and UW Colleges Online comprise the UW Colleges. They offer an Associate of Arts and Sciences degree and prepare students of all ages and backgrounds for baccalaureate and professional programs.

In addition, UW-Waukesha offers several collaborative bachelor’s degrees through UW-Milwaukee and UW-Oshkosh. Starting this fall, UW-Waukesha is offering the Bachelor of Applied Arts and Sciences (BAAS) degree completion program, a bachelor’s degree that can be earned at UW-Waukesha in collaboration with UW-Parkside. The degree is conferred by UW Colleges. Classes are taught by faculty from both UW-Waukesha and UW-Parkside.
